CBS DETROIT – Michigan head coach Brady Hoke released a statement Wednesday afternoon about sophomore offensive lineman Kyle Bosch, who evidently may not be playing in Saturday’s game against rival Notre Dame.

“Kyle Bosch has taken a leave of absence for an undetermined amount of time for personal reasons,” Hoke stated in a press release. “We ask that his privacy be respected at this time. We wish him the best and look forward to his return.”

Bosch played in Michigan’s season opener and got time at left guard in five games – three of which he started – as a freshman last season.
